Author of 80+ books, Marilyn Pappano has been married for thirty+ years to the best husband a writer could have. She's written more than 80 books and has won the RITA and many other awards. She blogs at www.the-twisted-sisters.com and can be found at www.marilyn-pappano.com. She and her husband live in Oklahoma with five rough-and-tumble dogs.

A loyal son, loving brother and doting single dad, rugged rancher Tate Rawlins was as honest as an Oklahoma day was long. But when Alabama reporter Natalie Grant began investigating his family's secrets, Tate grudgingly adopted deception to protect his unconventional kin from scandal. He would impersonate his half brother--a famous senator's hidden illegitimate son--and stonewall the Southern writer into abandoning her exposé.
But Tate didn't reckon on how badly Natalie needed her story--or how badly he would need her. The leggy redhead lassoed his libido, harnessed his heart, enchanted his motherless son...until Tate ached to make her his. But how could he promise Natalie forever while whispering sweet, loving lies?
